Ayelet Shaked, Israel's former Justice Minister and a senior lawmaker with the right-wing Yamina party, said on Tuesday that voting for it was "the best guarantee we won't have a fifth election."

In an interview for i24NEWS and Israel Hayom, the lawmaker touted Yamina's position between the two key blocs on the Israeli political stage – those supporting Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and those against him.
Yamina, unlike the rival right-wing New Hope led by Gideon Sa'ar, has not rejected the prospect of sitting in a government with Netanyahu. "Israel is in an endless loop of elections," and Yamina can break it, Shaked said.
"We will form a right-wing government with a right-wing prime minister," she pledged, saying that this was the party's ultimate plan – and the time to figure out the details will come when the outcome of the March 23 vote is clear.
"We will not sit under [Yesh Atid leader] Yair Lapid as prime minister," she added.
